A few day ago a young lady here ask me a question! She was trying to understand what her quit date actually meant! Since my reply was on her message board I doubt that many of you saw it, so I decided to put it here, in the open, in hopes that there is something here that someone can use!
Her Question: My quit date is December 20th. Is that the first day that I try not to smoke at all?
My Answer: Good morning! I am glad to hear that you have chosen to dive in! No! Your quit date is not a day that you TRY not to smoke. It is the day you make a commitment to never put another cigarette in your mouth! It is the day that you take the first steps down the road to Freedom from our addiction! It is the day you begin to regain your confidence and self esteem! It is the day you decide that you will live a life that is not interrupted by the need to go and feed your addiction! It is the day you realize that a lifetime of Freedom is worth a short time of discomfort! The keys to success are education and support! Learn what to EXpect and we will provide the support! YOU CAN DO THIS! We will help!
